CEP has contributed to newly published study on the EU implementation of the Aarhus Convention

PUBLICATION OF A REPORT ON THE STUDY ON EU IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AARHUS CONVENTION IN THE AREA OF ACCESS TO JUSTICE IN ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS UNDER FRAMEWORK CONTRACT ENV E.4/FRA/2016/0003.

CEP was part of a team led by Milieu Ltd who carried out this project for DG Environment.  The report provides an evaluation of the performance of the current system of EU implementation of the Aarhus Convention in the area of access to justice in environmental matters, and a detailed assessment of possible options, to enable the Commission to decide how best to go forward in order to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Aarhus Convention by the EU.  The study is part of the Roadmap published by the Commission in May 2018 on the implementation of the Aarhus Convention in the area of access to justice in environmental matters.  Dr Clare Twigger-Ross from CEP provided expert input into the assessment of social impacts of the current situation as well as future options.

The report is available here.
